Reduction and subsequent recovery of accessory gland length following mating. Mean accessory gland length decreased from 2.10 mm to 1.85 mm following mating and was restored to the original size within 8–48 hours. Controls (con) were unmated (virgin) males. Columns not marked with the same letter are significantly different (Tukey HSD). Values shown are least squares means ± s.e. at average values of male eyespan.
